  • My go to app for most everything when I travel

    I’ve had this app for years and it’s my go to app for when I travel to a new city or even when I’m home in Houston, Texas.
  • Love love love. Minimal and dependable

    I am very pleased with this app. I also use Street. It’s companion app. I never wanted all that Google crap all over my phone. Thanks developer. Minimal and extremely dependable.

    ❤️ Thank you! – Sarah
  • Doesn’t provide navigation

    Super disappointed. Great idea, but no value added if it won’t navigate you to the place you want to go. While it’s not expensive, I can google for free.

    Where To? focuses on place search and gives you the choice which app you want to use for turn-by-turn directions – if the integrated route preview is not enough for you. That’s why we support more than 80 third party apps including “Send to Car”. Best, Sarah
  • Great app but.....

    I’ve used this for years as my go to app when traveling. Nothing better but...... I have noticed that upon starting it it will retain the last gps location. Even after touching the direction arrow in the bottom left corner it still does not always refresh its gps location. Can the developers fix this? This seems to be random.


    Update 8-2021 : My issue stated above seems to be corrected. A version update may have fixed it. You still have to hit the direction arrow at the bottom left corner but it will consistently update its GPS position when doing so.

  • Love this app..

    I love using this app for finding good eats, places to shop, etc.

    However, due to the arrival of Covid-19, it would appear that the app has not been updated with places that have closed permanently due to the economic backlash we have experienced.

    Please update!

    It took a bit longer but version 11 is a huge update. Hope you had the chance to play with the new features. Best, Sarah
  • Undoubtedly One of the Best Apps

    We’ve had this app for years, ever since we got our first iPhones over ten years ago and it has proven its worth time and again. I can honestly say that this app is the one most worth it’s cost. Want to know where to eat? Where can I find a certain type of store? This app can tell you. I can and do tell anyone I know that this app is a must.

    Thanks so much, you made our day! 😊
  • Great app, but could make a few improvements

    I love using this to find gas stations when traveling & looking for large gas stations that have fast food & usually cleaner bathrooms. Although when zooming out to try to pick the best locations it will automatically zoom me back in & you have to keep going back & forth, it’s frustrating. Also it does not let you know the exit numbers when your looking at the different options on the map. I look at the options on the map to plan our stops out & then go back to our gps. It’s the exit app but it doesn’t note the exit numbers unless you go opt for directions & then go to the list view of what the turn by turn directions are then it tells you the exit number. These changes would be a great improvement for many users.

    This should be fixed in the new version 11. Please let us know if you still experience problems. Thanks, Sarah
  • Installed Where To?, immediately deleted Yelp

    So much more useful to me than Yelp. Better user interface, better detail about a particular location, and I still get reviews, just without the creepy social media feel of Yelp.

    Thanks for the nice words. Keeps us motivated! 😀 Sarah
  • Very Frustrating

    The app has some issues. For example, I looked up Starbucks, but it does not list the one nearest to me. I verified the location in the Starbucks app. After repeated attempts, I can see the location (sometimes) in the map view, but never in the list view.
    Crashes when I try to suggest Edit.
    Hooters is not a Chinese Restaurant.

    I'm sorry you're not completely satisfied with the app. Locations are constantly updated and unfortunately, it sometimes takes some time to get everything right. We'd love to analyze the problems with list view and edit suggestions. Can you email us at whereto@futuretap.com? We're glad to help and will do what we can to address your issues! - Sarah
  • Very useful app

    This app actually saved my life when I was in a foreign city and needed a pharmacy badly. I also regularly use it for restaurant recommendations and to send the destination info to my Mercedes navigation system.
